The World’s Hardest High Protein Low Carb Diet In The World
Warning: This is officially the hardest diet I have created and you will ever get access too. Read on to see if you’re up for the challenge to take on The World’s Hardest Diet.
Fact: a hard diet will create a hard man.
Who has the hardest bodies in the world?
Competitive bodybuilders. No other athlete comes close.
There is no other breed of athlete that has mastered the art of deprivation or denying ones taste buds, using high protein low carb diets.
Stripping off the last few ounces of fat dares you to take your body further than it has ever gone before. To get extreme fat-burning results like you’ve never seen before, be prepared to punish yourself and rely on sadomasochism as a guiding principle.
In the gym, high-level bodybuilder would tell you that must be prepared to punish yourself with your weight-training routine. In the kitchen, same rules apply.
The World’s Hardest Diet, which consists of ultra low carbs and ultra high protein (and virtually no fat) demands that whiners, complainers and quitters need not apply. This is not for you so don’t waste your time.
Do you think pro bodybuilder Jay Cutler has a side order of bread with his chicken breast? Not a chance. Do you think Arnold enjoyed fruit crepes as a side order to his breakfast? No way.
Heck, most pro-bodybuilders indulge in fish and chicken (unsalted) for weeks at a time leading up to their big shows. I doubt you have the commitment or will power to make it through one-week, but I’ll give you a chance to prove me wrong 
One of my favorite bodybuilder, Jim Cordova (2-Time Mr. Universe), who is familar with high protein and low carb diets
The World’s Hardest Diet Rules
1. Cut out all the carbs – yes, even the clean sources like oatmeal, brown rice and yams. This diet consists of barely 10% carbs and the sources come from vegetal sources, which means they are primarily fibrous carbs that will not raise your insulin levels or be burned for energy.

7 Things You Must Do For Defined Muscle
The Lean Machine Series brought to you by Vince Del Monte and http://MeltFatNotMuscle.com
Summer is just around the corner and you’ve packed on some new muscle mass, but now you’re dying to get really hard and cut up. Whether you’ve dieted for definition or not, before you begin your plan to get seriously defined you are probably thinking:
Where do I start and what should I do?
If you want to show off your best body this summer and get seriously defined muscle, this week I’m going to show you how.
The first cut is the hardest.
Just like the first $10,000 is harder than the first $100,000 – it gets easier once you overcome that first wall. It’s the same with fat loss. Losing the first pound can sometimes be harder than the last pound. And getting that first cut of definition on your body is always the hardest.
FAME 2008, Toronto Ontario. Vince Del Monte competing in the Muscle Model Category.
Getting Defined Muscle Is NOT Easy.
Once you understand that getting defined is hard, then it becomes easy. The people who fail at getting defined start with the mindset that is should be easy – it’s not, which is why you see very few people on the streets who look truly impressive.
Serious bodybuilders would agree that building muscle is difficult and have this mindset that, “I’m going to spend a few months bulking up and then just cut the fat.” You don’t “just cut the fat.” Not for most and probably not for you either. Getting defined is very possible for anybody but requires a mindset that, “This is going to be tough.”
Grasp The Lean Threshold
The Lean Threshold applies to men and women and we’ll use a man for this example. The Lean Threshold suggests that at certain body fat levels a man will look the same. This means that if a man is 13-18% body then you will not be able to distinguish the difference. 10% body fat for a man is very lean. 18% or more of fat for a men is fat. If a man is under 10% fat or over 18% fat then you’ll clearly be able to tell he’s “lean” or “fat.” Anything in between is very vague and it is very hard to notice any differences.
What does this mean to you? If you truly want to stand out this summer, you need to get out of the “vague” zone and get close to 10% body fat. The equivalent of 10% body fat for a male is about 15% fat for a female.
7 Things You Must Do For Muscle Definition
1. Give Yourself Enough Time
Time, your best ally. Give your program time to work. Some “pros” can drop 50 pounds of fat in 8-weeks. Others, it will take an entire year to get rid of 50 pounds of fat. Don’t underestimate how much time it will take to get yourself defined. Most likely you have more fat to lose than you think. Get your body fat measured and plan to lose at least 1% of your fat each week.
For most people, it takes 12 to 16 weeks, to get below the lean threshold so if you plan on being ripped for summertime, you’re already behind, let’s get started today.
2. Use The Mirror
Bodybuilding is a visual sport. If it appears you need to lose more fat, then you do. The mirror does not lie. Go by what you see, not by what numbers on a scale tell you. Plus, don’t feel like a narcissist for looking at yourself in the mirror. The mirror is the equivalent of your bank account and a simple reflection of the amounts of withdrawals and deposits you’ve made. As my Dad always warns me, “Just don’t fall in love with yourself, Vince.” (Every one is guilty of a little narcissism and I’m the first one to admit it).

5 “Under Utilized” Fat Burning Foods
Not all calories are created equal.
Consuming certain foods will actually help you burn fat while others can cause you to store fat.
Yes, it’s true that energy management is related to the amount of calories you to do and don’t stick in your pie hole.
But that’s not the whole story.
If weight management was simply a function of calories then it would be true that 2000 calories of Apple Fritter doughnuts would have the safe effect as 2000 calories as oatmeal. Eating 2000 calories of oatmeal a day would provide a full feeling that will provide you long-longstaing energy all day. In comparison, 2000 calories of Apple Fritter doughnuts would result in a spike in your insulin levels, shortly making you craving another fritter and more famished before you had the first one – and more likely to get deposited around your butt and gut.
So how do you pick the best fat burning foods? Easy. Look for foods that are considered thermogenic. Calorie for calorie, certain foods are considered to increase your metabolic rate – that is, they naturally increase energy expenditure – helping you burn body fat rather than storing it.
And when that occurs, your body taps into existing fat stores to meet energy demands, melting off the layer of fat covering up your six pack that you’ve been dying to show off.
Even better, some foods have abilities to surpass their fat-burning effect. Certain choices result in fullness; some require energy to be broken down; and some can some can even release body fat elevating your metabolism.
The science is complicated and not necessary to grasp. You need to understand which foods work to promote fat burning so you can capitalize on the best options and get rid of your unwanted fat.
Here are a few of my favourite fat-burning foods and why they can be so effective:
1. Oatmeal
The breakfast of fat-loss champions! Oatmeal will help you reduce fat levels by providing sustainable energy and keeping you full so you don’t over eat mid morning. It’s full of plenty of fiber to maintain your insulin levels throughout the day.

Suffering from Belly Fat?
By John Romaniello
Like many people, you probably suffer from regional fat storage issues. That is, while you store fat over your entire body, it’s probably most noticeable in certain areas, and it’s from these areas in which we struggle most to lose fat. You know–the problem areas.
These problem areas are influenced heavily by your hormonal environment, and where you store that last bit of fat is determined by which of your hormones are most out of whack (and yes, sometimes it’s quite a few of them).
Today I’m going to talk to you about belly fat specifically.

Peter Luckraft: Man Of No Nonsense
My favorite part about the muscle magazines is the “members feedback,” “”What you have to say,” “success stories,” and “story of the month” sections.
I love seeing the pictures of every day folk, like you and I, who have taken action and proved that they are for real.
Today I want to feature Peter Luckraft who was a winner of my 3rd Transformation Challenge and who was willing to answer some questions about his success.
I plan on doing this on a regular basis so keep an eye out on your email Inbox for when I ask you to be featured.
Here are Peter’s before and after pics (he cropped out the background so they look better FYI)
Vince: What was your fitness level and physique like before using any of my programs?
Peter: I would say mediocre to poor. Before I began implementing your six pack program, I did go to the gym, but like most of the people there, I really didn’t know what I was doing. It was the same old routine with no real results.
Vince: What has been your primary fitness goal and what is your primary motivation towards your training?
Peter: My fitness goal was to get my body fat level into the single digits. I feel that 10% BF is a healthy place to live. My primary motivation is my age and family.
I am 32 years old, and have a wife and 3 daughters who look up to me. I will be the best role model I can for them, and you and I both know Vince, that it feels dam good to be in shape.
Vince: What is your secret to staying motivated?
Peter: Good question, because I have seen so many people lose weight, only to put it right back on, and end up either where they started, or worse! If you have ever watched the first episode of “The Biggest Loser”, then you will know what keeps me motivated. Like anyone else who is out of shape, I struggled like heck to shed the fat and get into great shape, and there is no way I want to do that again, especially now that I have all of the tools required to keep in shape. I quote you Vince, “It’s much easier to keep a six pack than it is to get one”.
Vince: How do you handle your training and nutrition schedule around your company and having a wife and 3 daughters?
Peter: Another great question. Here’s how I see it, if getting in shape is important to you, you make it a priority. Personally, I get up at about 5:00 to 5:30 to get to the gym, usually about 4 days a week. I will sometimes use the old treadmill in the basement for evening intervals on the off days (time I would likely be spending in front of the tube). It leaves me so much available time to be with my wife and daughters.
Regarding nutrition, For the first 4 meals / snacks, I eat alone, so I can eat as healthy as I wish. In the evening, I always try to prepare a great dinner for my family, and frankly, I do allow myslef to indulge a bit at times, but I always make sure that the majority of the time, I am eating good whole foods.
Vince: What is your biggest obstacle with achieving your fitness goals and how have you overcome it?
